The Development Services Group (DSG) was created with a simple idea: to provide a developer's perspective and skills to nondeveloper clients wishing to take their projects from concept to reality. We do this by combining our 20 years of hands-on, large-scale development experience with the analytical underpinnings of RCLCO's thousands of consulting engagements at the predevelopment stage.

Since 2003, DSG has helped numerous nondeveloper owners realize significant value for their properties. We provide development guidance to our clients by:

1. Leading property owners through the initial development-project conceptualization to yield a clear project vision.


2. Identifying and selecting the optimal developer and conducting development partnership negotiations.


3. Guiding the entire process-from development team assembly through design, entitlements, public outreach, financing, marketing, and construction.


4. Providing owner representation on strategic issues.

ABOUT DSG

We act as your guide through the complex development process. Our significant growth over the years has confirmed both the market opportunity for our services and our team's ability to deliver results.

1. Our focus is to define and carry out the property strategy that creates the greatest value consistent with the client's objectives.


2. Our clients are typically nondevelopers requiring development expertise. In the past, we've worked on assignments for families, corporations, hospitals, and public agencies.


3. Our services range from concept development-working closely with the design team-to implementation, which can involve gaining development entitlement support, forming a joint venture, or managing a project to completion.

VALUE ADDED


The decisions made at the front end of the development process-such as securing the land or defining a project concept-will have the biggest impact on the value-creation potential of the project. That is why we spend so much time ensuring that we build a solid base at the outset, including a clear understanding of each client's objectives, a comprehensive assessment of the market opportunities, development feasibility, and a realistic financial model of the deal.
